Waterfalls Lyrics - Stooshe - Stooshe

A lonely mother gazing out of the window 

Staring at her son that she just can't touch 

If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side 

But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much 

But all the praying just ain't helping at all 

Cuz he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble 

So he goes out and he makes his money 

The best way he knows how 

Another body laying cold in the gutter 

Listen to me 

Don't go chasing waterfalls 

Please stick to the rivers 

And the lakes that you're used to 

I know that you're gonna have it 

Your way or nothing at all 

But I think you're moving too fast 

Little precious has a natural obsession 

For temptation but he just can't see 

She gives him loving that his body 

Can't handle but all he can say 

Is "baby is good to me" 

One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror 

But he doesn't recognize his own face 

His health is fading and he doesn't know why 

3 letters took him to his final resting place... 

Y'all don't you hear me 

Don't go chasing waterfalls 

Please stick to the rivers 

And the lakes that you're used to 

I know that you're gonna have it 

Your way or nothing at all 

But I think you are moving too fast (moving too fast) 

Come on 

I've seen a rainbow yesterday 

But too many storms have come and gone 

Leaving a trace 

Of not one God giving ray 

Is it because 

My life is ten shades of grey 

I pray all ten fade away 

Seldom praise him for the seven days 

And like his promise is true 

Only my faith can undo 

The many chances I blew 

To bring my life to anew 

Clear and blue and unconditional 

Skies have dried the tears from my eyes 

No more lonely cries, 

My only bleeding hope 

Is for the folk who can't cope 

With such an enduring pain 

That it keeps them in the pourin' rain 

Who's to blame for tooting cane into your own vein 

What a shame you shoot and aim 

For someone else's blame 

You claim the insane for 

This day and time for falling 

Prey to crime I say the system's 

Got you victim to your own mind 

Dreams are hopeless aspirations 

In hopes of coming true 

Believe in yourself 

The rest is up to me and you 

Don't go chasing waterfalls 

Please stick to the rivers 

And the lakes that you're used to 

I know that you're gonna have it 

Your way or nothing at all 

But I think you're moving too fast X2
